JerseyBills

I know he was highly respected. But he's a rookie and exceeded expectations. I attribute alot of their success to their elite staff. I feel like Buffalo has an elite staff and can exceed expectations. 1. Magic 2. Jordan 3. LeBron 4. Duncan 5 Shaq You're not beating that team!

Dude, I played since I'm 10 and been a loyal Knock fan since Starks and Ewing. Draft picks in the NBA are nowhere near as valuable than an NFL draft pick. Tatum was no lock to pan out. The Raiders ,on paper were SB contenders ,in the off-season. Remember, the prior year they won 12-13? Carr got hurt. They are very talented:! They were a popular pick to reach the SB. They have a nice collection of talent,I love this Team as a whole. I'm just appreciative we got quality and the same vision at GM and HC. I wasn't super fond of the hires. After one year, like I said, I feel we struck gold. Both got football running through their veins and are meant to be doing what they're doing...

I know this. I know they're highly respected around here, I am premature but I think they are Championship quality. I don't see that statement too much.

He beat Pitt in a playoff game (No Easy Feat!) til newly acquired Patriot Jeremy Hill fumbled. You know deep down that Mccarron must think what coulda been. Hill doesn't fumble and Mccarron wins a couple playoff games? His stock would be much higher!

Exactly. And I'm talking premature about McBeane having that type of impact, but after a year of seeing how they move, I'm really holding them to high standards, I think we struck gold with these two The stat sheet doesn't show the impact Stevens/Ainge had .

That's actually a great point. My argument is if you looked at this roster with no Kyrie or Hayward this off-season, you see a team that has no shot at a title, on paper. That's how Buf is viewed, no shot , on paper, which doesn't account for the coaching and culture of the team.

Idk why I found that funny lol. I think Streater can play and Zay hopefully lives up to his true potential.

Um. Talking 2018 version. Past is irrelevant to the topic.

Loads? Josh Allen Tre White Edmunds Dawkins A bunch more that could easily make the leap. Celts are winning with zero household names. Play amazing TEAM ball Tre White If Josh Allen can be Rozier, a largely unknown commodity that got elevated due to injury and exceeds expectations, we have something special brewing here folks.

Well I see your point clearly, but based on their performance in year one , I can see 9-10 wins , next year we'll be legit contenders but I think we did good this off-season and have more depth than we get credit for. Defense- DL- loses Zero impact players. Add 3 potential impact players, imo , in Murphy, the rookie and Star (his stats won't show his impact on this scheme). LB - Loses One impact player. Adds 1 impact player. If Available, Edmunds is going to make Preston look like an amateur. Hopefully Milano and Vallejo progress. DB - Loses One impact player. Adds 2 impact players. Davis is a perfect fit. Heady, aggressive , pro bowl corner in a simple scheme, don't be surprised to see a Pro Bowl Davis. Gaines is just not available enough. And one of Bush (underrated signing) and one of the two rookies can definitely have impacts. We had injuries last year, they said the same negative comments. The team overcame it. I'll do the offense later but depth is improved over last year on a 9 win team , on Defense at least. As far as WR, we lost zero impact guys imo. Thompson was very unreliable. If KB is healthy, that instantly bolsters the WR corps big time. RB is improved. OL is worrisome but there's a nice mix of vets and younger guys, hopefully they get as a unit. Things overall look better than last year and we won 9. I don't think we should lower our expectations based on the same arguments we were making last Off Season!! This staff is the real deal.

Before this year, with no Kyrie, Hayward, if u we're to say Boston would be in Finals, that'd sound crazy. Talented,yes but the coaching and discipline instilled is the key to their success. Before the year nobody even knew of Rozier,Brown and Tatum being studs. Their team first mentality was instilled since off-season and is paying off big right now

So I'm watching week 8 Red Zone replay on NFL Network. It was the Raiders game, at home. We were definitely the less talented team, but definitely the more prepared and focused as far as the fundamentals of the game. Hausch Money causing a fumble for example,shows me that coaching smartly instilled and took time on the D and ST forcing fumbles,it's a game changing play after all , tackling and assignments clearly being better executed better by Buffalo. The details, intangibles and team work were impeccable by Buffalo against superior talent and they get a comfortable Win. A limited Tyrod is throwing to Zay, Matthews And Andre Holmes (who got his 3rd TD and made a cpl impressive catches) , who I still have hopes could be effective , did he get injured at some point? He has potential for real. Besides Shady , who imo is the best player on the field, period, we were outmatched but we're coached right and play as one, it was too easy of a Win. Anyway, to me , coaching clearly won this game comfortably and New Era is officially back as one of the tougher stadiums to win in. Just like Boston, with perceived limited talent, they are using superior coaching , like they did all year, to win the majority of games, focusing on the basics and intagibles of the game, something McD preaches consistently and I love it. Overall imo we improved from last year , besides OL , we're better or equal at every other group and we still have the X Factor on the sideline, a guy I feel will be around a Long Long time. So don't be surprised if we improve on our record , despite the mainly low expectations from most of the football community. AJ or if Allen beats him out, will be as good or better at QB.

I'm very optimistic and like you said, will make our back 7 that much better. Hoping Adolphus and Shaq step up and reach their potential and we got a great rotation on our hands..

That 2nd half of the Senior Bowl was great , after a rough start . The more I watch and listen to guys who've been around the game their whole lives described him as unbelievable, special,etc . It really gets me thinking we got an absolute steal. Many reports claim Cle was pro Allen on one and it created a little rift with the staff. I think we got a steal when it's all said and done

Wow that was an amazing watch. He is probably the first QB of the internet heavy era talked about so openly with words like jaw dropping, amazing , unreal ,etc.. Guys who have been around the game their whole lives are blown away by the kid. This got me pumped,thx for sharing

To me there's no value of where you draft a QB, if he's a projected late rounder but can be a franchise guy and goes in the first,it's a win . If he's a projected first and you grab him in the 3rd and busts, well ,you just wasted a 3rd rounder and take a L. The diversity of grades , ranging from A to D- show what most of us already know, and that is we know Nothing about how successful these draft picks will be, including these self proclaimed experts.

We're going to have a ton of spending cash and not many of our own FA to sign. 18 was the most important draft in forever. 19 will be one of the most FA periods in franchise history.

I forgot Fournette too! I really think he's fairly overrated. Jax did very well in his absence And he's not much of a threat in the pass game.

Good call. Still ,White has to be one of the 5 rookies I would think.

Shouldn't be on list period. And NFL said 5 rookies made list.. Lattimore already named Kamara Hunt Reuben Foster? White deserves to be on that list

Jordan Palmer who has now worked with a bunch of young QBs seems to have had a huge impact on Josh Allen, look no further than that 2nd half of the Senior Bowl , but if a part time mentor can make changes to his game, I think that showed this staff that his tremendous upside can be reached. I'll leave a few videos, but man I'm loving this pick, I think we got the best QB and will be running the AFC East sooner than later. The kid has freakish skills and is COACHABLE. Suprised not many have pointed out the impact Palmer has had on his game, you can hear his confidence in Allen over Darnold too imo. Only time will tell but I think we got our franchise guy!

This draft can literally make us an elite team for the next decade, huge implications ride on this draft. I'd also add Neal to that list. Doubt he starts but I think he'll have a major contribution in sub packages, playing multiple positions. I'll say it again about Edmunds- he is going to be a feared , special talent. If Allen works out , we'll be looking back at this draft for many years , as the 3 days that changed everything for our beloved Bills, as well as the hiring of McBeane, who we hit a home run on!

I feel the same way. We might be looking back at this draft in 3-4 years as the one that propelled the Bills to a consistent , elite AFC contender. Edmunds was a robbery, going to be a terror on this D and if Allen is the real deal , we're set

Exactly. Beane and the staff have a clear vision of what it takes to be consistent winners in this league and I have a ton of confidence in their decision making. Last year was impressive to say the least and I expect this roster to be an upgrade and next year to be SB contenders after all that dead cap is gone. We're in good hands

I actually love the pick. I'm all about building on your strengths, remember , the secondary shined with very little pressure from our DL. We showed that up in FA and now add a potential instant starter at ncb. Every team has holes! It's the nature of the game. I love that we are building on one of our biggest strengths, year 2 , I expect this secondary to be scary good.
